No kidding. It's like dude, you are fighting a grandpa in there, you aren't fighitng some "young, hungry, lion"....it's a past prime old man, lol. Just go out there and beat this guy but don't try to sell it to the fans, some of whom may have been fans of the sport since before you were born, like you are taking on the toughest challenge out there because some fans were not born yesterday.

After this, we want to see you in the ring with Garcia, it's time for him to go.

you'd be amazed how many people on here think bundus a good test lol. i got made out to be crazy for criticising a fight in which spence is 1/100 on to win

Because the IBF is the best route for a young fighter to get a belt because there aren't politics involved like the other belts. Do you see the IBF doing **** like the WBC and WBO not enforcing mando's? Why didn't Brook go the WBA route after Thurman's belt or the WBC route when Floyd was champ or the WBO? He's been a pro way longer than Spence and he just got the belt last year! You can't say Brook is better than Thurman and Garcia or Thurman is better than Brook and Garcia or Garcia is better than Thurman or Brook. None of the welterweights have set themselves a part. Spence went the route of the Ring magazine #1 welterweight and you're complaining? Thurman said Spence needed to prove himself and that's exactly what Spence is doing. The only WW out there that's trying to show he's the best.

It's amazing to me that a 26 year old who has only been pro for 4 years is criticized for trying to get a belt while a 34 year old is praised for trying to get all the belts.

What are you talking about with the IBF? The IBF is just with the non-Haymon guy. Haymon trying to keep all his best guys from fighting each other like normal. Don't try to spin it as anything else.

As for GGG, trying to get all the belts means, by definition, fighting all the best guys. Just trying to get one belt means you can pick and choose the easiest one. It's totally different. And GGG tried to fight Froch, Degale, Chavez jr at 168, all the best guys at 168 since Ward admits he couldn't make the weight and struggles to even make 175, and all the best guys at 160 belt or not, like Canelo, Jacobs, etc.

So, keep making stuff up, or using ridiculous logic. When Spence offers fights to all the best guys at 154 and 147, then you can compare him to GGG.
